Bishop. David Oyedepo, founder of the Living Faith Church worldwide
AKA Winners Chapel, has reportedly appealed to those criticising the
school fees charged by Covenant University to desist from it so to avoid
incurring the wrath of God.
Oyedepo, in a telecast to a pre-Shiloh 2016 Convention gathering of
the church monitored via satellite in Jos on Saturday, said the critics
were acting in ignorance and risked incurring the wrath of God.
He said one of such critic was smitten with a strange plague of
chronic mouth odour over the act. He only received spiritual pardon
following his confession and “my intervention before he was restored to dignity”.
The Guardian reports Oyedepo said the issue of
school fees paid by students of the university was a godly agenda to
meet the demands of raising godly children in an environment conducive
for learning.
He said such criticisms were products of ignorance as what students
pay could not be compared with what obtained elsewhere that lacked
facilities.
“The school fees has God’s approval and is in accordance with the quality of facilities provided by the university in meeting the educational needs of the nation,” he said.
He said the church in its pioneering role in pushing the frontiers of
education with excellence had concluded plans to establish offshore
universities.
The cleric said a fully automated Bible press by the church had been completed and would be launched soon.
Oyedepo, however, quoting from some verses of the Bible, which
include Matthew 24:6-8, 1Peter 2:9, Joel 2:2 and Mal. 4:1, said the
current economic meltdown was predicted but that committed Christians
would be exempted.
He prayed for resources for parents to always meet the demands of the
time and declared the theme of this year’s Shiloh holding between Dec. 6
and Dec. 10 as “My Case is Different”.
The bishop said this year’s annual event of Shiloh would not be advertised as past events as it would be church based.
